Swooshed Poems

Miss Velociraptor knew she was scary,
she’d be rich if for each scream she had a penny.
She tried her best not to growl,
not to chase, beat or foul,
but not for long could she stick with any.

Mr T-Rex wanted a mate,
old now,...Read More

My thoughts, they swirl, like dried up grass
Everywhere on breezes- 
No sense, too many on the move
Swooshing through my mind.

I just can’t focus on the why
You had to go with him.
I thought we would be things in rings
And marry up...Read More

Sirens sounded secretly securing source. Strait sacks swooshed scamps scaling sensitive sentries (simply spayed seals) surveying surrounding staked spy sotted sham semicircular slipshod shelter. Snappy, Snippy, Snoopy suited Skyhawks surprisingly swooped somnambulant senseless scriveners. Sargent Salemander slipped shiny shimmering shellacked...Read More

It was hard...Read More

You stand here counting
as days go on by.
But what you don't...Read More

Petermännchen handed me over his bunch of key
Hugged me and sent me to the east Aegean sea

WATERFALLS, RIVERS AND DROUGHT

The frenzied forces of cold, icy streams
detonate explosively on the rocks below.
Their rapid currents wreak havoc 
on logjams caught in crevasses beneath
the mist and rainbowed spray.

We blink in awe to see this
spectacular remonstration

They stepped on the tables like tapestry's ripping
